I have ASC that blocks certain known bad cookies, I block and Firefox unblocks, how do I stop this
I run a system scan with Advanced System Care and it shows that potentially bad cookeies are not blocked. I block them and and open FF. they staty blocked until I shut down FF and restart. Anyway to keep this list in FF memory?

There is usually no need to worry about cookies as those can only contain text.
In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
- do not clear the Site Preferences
- Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/remove-browsing-search-and-download-history
Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies with an allow exception that you would like to keep.

Do you know what sites the cookies are for? When a browser goes to a web site, the site stores cookies containing things like your logon and settings for that site.
